League Statement: COVID-19

The Isthmian League has today issued a statement confirming its postponing all fixtures for the next week in light of the current situation regarding COVID-19.

It means tomorrow’s trip to Sittingbourne and Tuesday’s visit to Hayward’s Heath Town will be re-arrangenged.

The statement in full:

The safety and wellbeing of all those associated with the League – our players, volunteers, Club Officials, Match Officials and supporters – is our number one priority, and we are closely monitoring the situation and carefully following advice from Public Health England.

The Board has decided that as an immediate step matches scheduled for tomorrow and next midweek will be postponed and we will review the situation daily as to when fixtures can recommence.

We understand the enormous financial impact this will have on many Clubs, but the Board feels that it is better to err on the side of caution at this time. We hope that by taking this step we can delay the spread of the virus and we earnestly hope that with the right approach there will be as few persons as possible suffering either directly or indirectly.

We look forward to the resumption of the fixtures as soon as possible.
